there is also this one on there. higher mileage but not bad for 4K.

Wrong time of year blah, blah.
24k miles and never let me down once in that time.
Previous owner was a Junkie and always looked after.
Meta M347 V2 Thatcham approved Cat.1 alarm/immobilizer with both remote fobs.
Both keys with all docs etc
Oil and filter changed regularly.
New plugs last year.
K&N air filter.
DID x-ring chain conversion with +2 on the rear sprocket and Speedo Healer V5 shows correct speed and accurate milage on the clocks.
Tax and MOT until April.
It had new headrace bearings last year.
There are a few minor scuffs, bodywork is not mint but overall still looks in good nick.
Set valve has started to squeak so I was going to remove it as soon as weather gets better, but not in a hurry as its been off the road for the last couple of months.
I've had a couple of people say they are interested but will not have the money for a month or two so anyone with money up front let me know.
I have a few spares like clutch cover gasget, o-rings, oil+filter, new clutch cable.
Tyres are like new, only a couple of hundred miles on them.
Not long had an oil and filter change and a new pair of Pirelli Diablos fitted.
Also it has black shortie Pazzo levers and a Zero Gravity dark double bubble screen I will chuck in at full asking price. I have the standard levers, screen, tail tidy, pillion seat and pillion pegs for it. Some more stuff like a full set of R&G Aero mushrooms, swing arm and fork bobbins, tail tidy, stomp grips etc I've forgot to mention.

[price=£4000]

Wow thanks for the help Mej. My budget is around 4.5k. Not in any hurry as I have the trusty SV at the moment but I'm starting to look seriously now.... Saw the one on pistonheads but it's quite far from me to go view it :( Will keep looking. Safe riding on yours BTW, hope to join the club soon :)

I just bought a GSXR. I find that Autotrader and Piston Heads is where all the dealers post there ads. EBay for private sellers and MCN is also quite good for private sellers too.

i would come down to bmouth if i was you, not to far to travel and Crescents will have everything you want. plus good day out to be able to look over the BSB and Moto GP workshops.

If you do, look for the sales guy called 'guy' "he's the one with no hair!" tell him that jim champion told you to speak with him and he will treat you well. Top guy is guy!

Have a look on some of the track forums, you often get road bikes advertised (and they like Gixers ;))

You can fill them with better quality oil.
